Drawing on a variety of Islamic sources, from the \u003ci\u003ehadith\u003c\/i\u003e, or sayings of Muhammad and his companions, to Abbasid and Persian texts, Weinberger weaves a subtle, mystical prose poem, spanning Muhammad\u0026amp;rsquo;s birth and childhood; his adolescence, miracles and marriages; to the \u003ci\u003eisra\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003emiraj\u003c\/i\u003e, his journey from Mecca to Jerusalem and ascent into heaven, with the angel Jibril (Gabriel) as his guide. The result is a vivid triptych that presents the final prophet of Islam with extraordinary clarity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt a time when the Muslim world is being demonized in much of the media \u003ci\u003eMuhammad\u003c\/i\u003e provides a sense of the awe surrounding this historical and sacred figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEliot Weinberger\u003c\/b\u003e (b.
